Bolstered by Petit Verdot and Merlot, this red wine get’s its name from the home of Robert Carter III. Robert was known as the “first emancipator”, renown for his forward thinking freeing of 509 slaves in 1791. Bright cherry, blackberry, and raspberry aromas backed up by vanilla, mocha and anise appeal to the olfactory senses. Those fruits carry over as part of a balanced palate including a hint of black pepper spice. The wine is soft, smoothed and velvety with well integrated acidity and tannins.
